[Task 2]: God & Godesses: Amaterasu


Amaterasu is the Japanese Shinto Sun godess. Amaterasu was so radiant and beautiful that her parents sent her up the ladder to the heavens. She ruled the heavens ever since that day. Amaterasu's brother, Susanowa, who was the storm god, made too much noise for her in heaven. She then decided to hide out in a cave. Her disappearence deprived the world of light and life.
